Puma spotted at Lapa Rios Ecolodge

03.22.2012

Another puma sighting at Lapa Rios,
one of our favorite ecologes in Costa Rica! This time, she was seen
coming out of the bushes near the path that leads to Lapa's beach on the
Osa Peninsula. One of Lapa's guides, Guillermo, happened to be there
with his camera! Of course, while its never good to approach wild
animals, this natural event took both the animal and Guillermo by
surprise.

While puma sittings are very rare, there is plenty of other exotic
wildlife in the Osa! You'll see colorful scarlet macaws and a plethora
of tropical bird species; four species of monkeys cavorting in the
forest canopy; plus tapir, anteaters, coatimundi, peccary herds and
more.
